چکیده

An exceptionally strong quadruply hydrogen-bonded complex is formed between 2,7-diamido-1,8-naphthyridine 3 (DAN) and the butylurea of guanosine 6 (UG) in chloroform. The UG unit can be prepared in four steps from guanosine on a 10 g scale in excellent yields without chromatographic purification. The association constant (Kassoc approximately 5 x 10(7) M(-1)) for the UG.DAN complex determined by fluorescence energy transfer from the naphthyridine unit of 3 to coumarin 343 covalently linked UG (18) is among the highest reported for a neutral DNA base-pair analogue. The weak self-association of DAN (Kdimer < 10 M(-1)) and UG (Kdimer ca. 200-300 M(-1)) means that the UG.DAN complex forms with unparalleled fidelity.

Higher affinity quadruply hydrogen-bonded complexation with 7-deazaguanine urea.

[structure: see text] UG forms a highly stable quadruply hydrogen-bonded heterocomplex with DAN, but the fidelity of the complex is lowered somewhat by the Hoogsteen-side oligomerization of UG (K(assoc) approximately 230 M(-)(1), CDCl(3)). DeUG was prepared as a more robust analogue of UG lacking the Hoogsteen nitrogen atom. Remarkably, the deaza analogue, DeUG, forms a much more stable complex...

Formation of a miscible supramolecular polymer blend through self-assembly mediated by a quadruply hydrogen-bonded heterocomplex.

A supramolecular network polymer consisting of a pair of immiscible polymers, poly(butyl)methacrylate (PBMA) and polystyrene (PS), is described. A urea of guanosine (1, UG) and 2,7-diamido-1,8-naphthyridine (2, DAN), which form an exceptionally strong quadruply hydrogen-bonding complex, are displayed at 1-10 mol % along the main backbone of PBMA and PS, respectively. (1)H NMR studies show heter...

Fidelity in the Supramolecular Assembly of Triply and Quadruply Hydrogen-Bonded Complexes

Advancements in self-assembly and nanotechnology will require multiple assembly “codes” to be executed simultaneously. At the molecular level this will require fidelity or orthogonality in molecular recognition events. To explore the limits of orthogonal assembly, association constants (K assoc ) and dimerization constants (K dimer ) were measured with a known series of matched and mismatched r...

A highly stable quadruply hydrogen-bonded heterocomplex useful for supramolecular polymer blends.

The butyl urea of guanosine (UG) presents an ADDA hydrogen-bonding array that is complementary to the DAAD array of 2,7-diamido-1,8-naphthyridine (DAN). The stability of the DAN.UG complex was measured by fluorimetry using the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) from the naphthyridine ring to a coumarin 343 moiety linked covalently to the UG unit. The quadruply hydrogen-bonded complex...

Quadruply hydrogen bonding modules as highly selective nanoscale adhesive agents.

Covalently linking DNA base analogues DAN, DeUG, or UPy to glass slides led to functional surfaces that could be glued together using a functionalized polystyrene displaying the complementary recognition unit. Nonspecific adhesion was minimized with fluorinated alkane (Teflon-like or Scotchgard-like) surfaces.
